WHEN YOUR PARTNER WANTS A TATOO AND YOU DONT WANT THEM TO!!!!

a bit of backgound info................my husband and i, after being in the org for 20 , high pressured years, faded about 4 years ago and after the usual feelings , anger, sadness, joy etc we had quite a upsetting change of circumstances.

recently my husband told me he didnt think he was in love with me anymore, decided he had missed out on what he really wanted to do with his life.

he wants to get a high powered motor bike, go off and get new friends ( i have no objection but hes blamed me cos he hasnt got any) and now has got a big tatoo on his arm from the shoulder to the elbow.. ive never been really keen on tatoos but sort of gave my inital reluctant support and actually went with him when he had it done!!.

DID YOU KNOW ANY JWs WHO ACTUALLY LIKE BEING ONE ?

what i mean is, ones who loved the meetings and field service.

ones who loved telling a person why they dont celebrate christmas, birthdays etc etc.........................ones who thought it wonderful that their children missed out on so much, and stood out in school and became a target for bullying.. i myself did everthing because i was terrified of the big "a" and so thought everything was worth it.

but i hated going to meetings, hated going on fs, hating not celebtating christmas and never really excepted the birthday thing.

A CHALLENGE ...........WOULD IT WORK ??????

my husband and i have very successfully faded for about 3 years.

we would dearly love my daughter and her husband to question and research the organization and find the truth for themselves.. they know we dont go anymore and have issues.

but its become a taboo subject with the s-i-l after a discussion about child abuse, where he made it obvious he didnt like the the org being "criticised".

Did you see any sad living conditions in Field Service...?

by Casper in

im sure all of us at one time or another witnessed homes that broke our heartshere are a few of mine.

some of the homes i had been invited into out in service really left an impression on me.

call it naive or whatever, it was a real eye opener in some cases.. one in particular that i remember was a poor family with 8 little girls, stair step in age, the oldest no more than 9. this was an rv of the sister i was with.... very nice people, but the living conditions were appalling.
